BELTON Playgroup is so proud of its newly developed outside area that it is holding an open day this Sunday (September 28).

Over the summer, local builder Nigel Gardner has erected a cabin for the group to have sole use of.

Samantha Pass, playgroup leader, said: “As a pack away setting, this is a real bonus as it is a wonderful space that can be left set up each day and can also display children’s work.

“The cabin even has an upstairs area. The staff have also developed a mud kitchen, loose parts physical play area and garden.

“The children who currently attend the playgroup are thoroughly enjoying having such an exciting outdoor environment; however there are vacancies for new children to join the group.”

The open day will take place at the playgroup at Belton Village Hall in School Lane between 1.30pm and 4pm. The grand cabin opening ceremony will take place at 2pm. For more info visit www.beltonplaygroup.co.uk
